Power Co. Warns
Of Con Artists
The Potomac Edison Company today issued a warning to its customers that con artists are posing as employees of the utility company in efforts to bilk customers of money or other material payments.
Mr. E. W. McCauley, District Manager of Potomac Edison, said that a number of cases have been reported in recent weeks in various sections of Potomac Edison’s service area. Persons falsely identifying themselves as Potomac Edison employees have used various schemes to collect money from customers, and in some of these cases, have collected substantial sums.
“Any employee of our company whose job requires calling on the public carries an identification card with the employee’s photo on it,” said Mr. McCauley.
He urged that any customer approached by a person claiming to be a Potomac Edison employee insist on identification, unless of course, they definitely know the person is a Potomac Edison employee.
If any doubt remains, the utility manager urges customers to call the nearest Potomac Edison office for verification.
